U.S. stock futures fell on Thursday as investors continued to assess the potential trajectory of technology stocks, anticipating key U.S. inflation data later this week to determine the direction of monetary policy. In extended trading, shares of Micron Technology dropped by 8% as its revenue forecast for the current quarter failed to excite investors, and shares of Levi Strauss fell by 12% due to lower-than-expected quarterly revenue. During regular trading on Wednesday, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite indices rose by 0.16% and 0.49% respectively, both advancing for the second consecutive day. The Dow index also increased by 0.04%. These changes were driven by strong gains in technology companies, including Apple (2%), Amazon (3.9%), and Tesla (4.8%), although nearly all other sectors declined. Financial stocks were also in the spotlight after the Federal Reserve stated that the largest banks could withstand a severe recession scenario. Meanwhile, on Thursday, investors will be evaluating new economic data as well as earnings reports from Walgreens and Nike.
